Today we explore the side of the game that’s often overlooked but is absolutely essential to player performance and success: nutrition.

Our guest plays a critical role in keeping the Albion players at their peak—mentally sharp and physically strong. He’s the club’s Executive Performance Chef, responsible for creating tailored meal plans that fuel the team through training, recovery, and match days.

From balancing nutrition needs to ensuring each meal is as delicious as it is functional, he’s the man behind the meals that power Brighton’s top performers.

Join us as we talk to Will Carvalho about the science of sports nutrition, how he designs menus and even what it's like cooking under pressure for a team competing at the highest level of football.
